Two swimmers attempt to cross the English Channel under the cover of fog, only for one to be deliberately drowned
This crime drama was released in the US as Black Tide, the name of the story by Sid Harris and Lou Dyer upon which it was based. It features a number of railway scenes, at Dover Priory station with ‘blood & custard’ coaching stock in the platform, and in Southall Goods Yard with railway wagons present. There is also a shot of one of the side entrances to Charing Cross station in London.
